Fitting the sensor head
• Fitting the sensor to the equipment requires a thread adaptor available separately from Gill sized
to fit the thread size of the equipment and is mandatory for all installations.
• The thread adaptor should be fitted to the sensor head using the grub screws provided with
the adaptor prior to installing the sensor head into the equipment. Detailed steps to fitting the
sensor head are contained in the Quick Start Guide available with the adaptor and should be
observed prior to installation.
• Where an NPT fitting is to be used, Gill recommend downloading the WearDetect software
from www.gillsc.com/support, restoring the factory defaults in the sensor menu to the “Small
sensitivity” settings and resetting the sensor head by pressing the zero/tare prior to use. Details
can also be found in section 5.4 of the manual.
Factory default settings
• From the factory the sensor is set to the small sensitivity scale (see below) for debris size for
the Fine and Coarse debris channels. The sensor can also be set to sense temperature or water
presence, either as an alarm or continuously. From the factory, the sensor will sense water
presence as an alarm.
• In addition, there are a number of sensor functions (see below) that can be enabled or disabled
through downloading the software from www.gillsc.com but the following highlights the
default settings without any software changes.
